Chapter 1276: Chapter 1273: The Appearance of the Golden Cauldron Pavilion (2nd Update)

“Hmm?” Xue An turned his head to glance at Xing Yushu.

Xing Yushu felt a shiver run through his body and quickly leapt into the Flying Boat as well.

“Hmm?” Xue An raised his eyebrows slightly again.

Obediently, Xing Yushu went to the front, picked up the whip, and flicked it lightly.

Crack!

After a crisp sound, the crane-drawn Flying Boat rumbled forward and disappeared into the horizon in the blink of an eye.

Sheng Miaotong stood dumbfounded, watching until the Flying Boat was completely out of sight, then gradually regained her composure, only to show a deep anger on her face.

“I kindly went to invite you, and you left without even saying hello?” Sheng Miaotong said angrily.

No one dared to respond, all silently lowered their heads, maintaining silence.

“Hmph! Let’s see if your Flying Boat is faster, or mine!” Sheng Miaotong vented for a while, then stamped her foot, ready to board her Flying Boat to pursue.

But just as she was about to leave, Su Junneng, riding an extraordinarily spirited one-legged celestial horse, also hurried over. Seeing Sheng Miaotong alone, his eyes lit up, and then he said with a smile.

“Miss Second, it’s getting late. How about we go together?”

Sheng Miaotong’s heart was already full of rage, and upon seeing Su Junneng, she became even more irritated, snorting coldly, “No need!”

After saying that, she suddenly remembered something, and looked Su Junneng up and down a few times, “And what are you up to?”

Su Junneng chuckled, then said with quite a bit of satisfaction, “If I may be so bold, I am also going to attend the founding ceremony of the Golden Cauldron Pavilion, so…”

Before he could finish, Sheng Miaotong waved her hand impatiently, “Fine, what does that have to do with me? Let’s go!”

With that, she entered the Flying Boat directly, then stepped hard on the throttle.

With a roaring tremor, the Flying Boat took off into the sky at a terrifying speed, vanishing in an instant.

Su Junneng stood in place, his face ashen.

No one had ever dared to ignore him like this! But Su Junneng didn’t direct his anger at Sheng Miaotong. He didn’t dare to do that!

Instead, he directed all his pent-up fury and pointed the finger squarely at Xue An.

In his view, everything was sabotaged by this nobody who had come out of nowhere!

“Hmph! Wait until we get there, then we’ll see how you handle it!” Su Junneng sneered, then turned his horse around, also flying towards the Golden Cauldron Pavilion.

Meanwhile, along the celestial path to the Golden Cauldron Pavilion, brilliant lights flared, and Flying Boats were as numerous as fish crossing the river.

Without exception, these people were all heading to the Golden Cauldron Pavilion to attend the grand ceremony.

Seeing this scene, Xing Yushu, who was driving the crane-drawn Flying Boat, couldn’t help but turn pale, his eyes flickering with nervousness.

Although Xing Yuhe left him a chance, the Golden Cauldron Pavilion was known as one of the Seven Grotto-Heavens, with extremely powerful strength.

And seeing the present situation, one could tell countless people wanted to join the Golden Cauldron Pavilion.

Will I really be able to smoothly inherit my grandfather’s legacy?

Xing Yushu’s heart hung in mid-air, filled with intense anxiety.

Xue An naturally noticed his thoughts, but only smiled.

“Are you nervous?”

“Yes!” Xing Yushu nodded.

“Don’t worry! Since your grandfather said so, then you will certainly be able to!” Xue An said indifferently.

“Thank you, sir!”

Xing Yushu now had a very respectful attitude towards Xue An.

After all, he was the benefactor who had avenged his blood feud for him, but he didn’t take Xue An’s reassurance to heart too much.

After all, it had been a hundred years since Xing Yuhe left the Golden Cauldron Pavilion, not too long yet not too short a time.

For cultivators, it might not amount to much, but it is enough to change many things.

Even when Grandfather had planned everything meticulously, who could guarantee everything would go smoothly?

If the so-called opportunity failed, what should one do then?

Xing Yushu was once again lost in confusion.

In such circumstances, the flying carriage hurtled through the skies at a swift speed.

In just one day, a tall mountain looming into the clouds faintly appeared in the distance.

When the full view of the mountain appeared before his eyes, Xing Yushu couldn’t help but gasp in admiration.

For this was not any ordinary mountain!

It was clearly a pavilion that was exquisitely delicate, finely crafted, and yet supremely majestic!

The delicate pavilions and towers floated in mid-air, connected by countless corridors that all anchored to the main body of the building above.

From afar, the numerous corridors resembled a honeycomb, adding a peculiar rhythmic beauty to the construction.

And when the sunlight shone down, regardless of the hour, the edges of the pavilion would be coated with a faint golden hue, further enhancing its grandeur.

This was the origin of the name Golden Cauldron Pavilion.

This was Xing Yushu’s first encounter with such a sight, and he felt his eyes weren’t enough to take it all in.

Not just him, but even those who had visited more than once, would still involuntarily marvel at the sight.

Only Xue An remained unperturbed; after glancing up at the Golden Cauldron Pavilion, his eyebrows slightly lifted and a complex, inscrutable expression flashed across his eyes.

By now, the surrounding crowds had grown even denser and the flying boats filled the sky like a swarm.

But no matter how powerful the visitors, nobody dared to cross the mountain gate ahead.

They could only gather and wait from a distance.

Fortunately, there was a small town not far from the mountain gate. The town was usually not bustling, but when it was time for the grand opening ceremony, it would be overflowing with people.

Everyone was willing to stay and rest here, waiting for the grand opening ceremony to begin.

Xue An and his companion did the same, but before they could descend, a flying boat came crashing abruptly through the crowd.

Along the way, all the flying carriages and boats suffered, either shattered to pieces or scraped terribly.

Suddenly, there was chaos amongst the crowd.

Many people were livid with anger, about to burst into curses.

But upon seeing the flying boat, they swallowed back their words.

Because they recognized the insignia on the boat.

The Sheng Family of Seven Grotto-Heavens!

Such an entity was not something they could afford to provoke, so everyone quickly fell in line.

Finally.

The flying boat came to a stop near Xue An, and then Sheng Miaotong emerged, smiling and saying, “Oh, what a coincidence!”

Xue An was speechless, but still nodded his head, “Indeed, such a coincidence!”

Sheng Miaotong giggled, “The grand opening ceremony isn’t until tomorrow. How about we stop by that tea house in the meantime?”

Sheng Miaotong was referring to the tea house situated in the center of the town, which also overlooked the entire mountain gate.

Xue An glanced at the ten-story tea house.

Sheng Miaotong quickly added, “I’ve heard the tea there is excellent, with a unique charm!”

Xue An smiled, “Well then, let’s go and have a taste!”
